It has 88 installs sharing analytics, needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated October 21, 2026. Astronomy Space Suite is a Home Assistant integration for NASA data, space weather, and sky positions. It adds sensors and cameras fed by NASA APIs and the vendor's cloud, plus an optional RocketLaunch.Live key for launch data. A local ephemeris option calculates positions for the Sun, Moon, and the planets from the observer's latitude, longitude, and elevation. A deep-sky option adds sensors for galaxies, nebulae, and clusters, with a minimum altitude setting that decides when an object counts as visible. It also includes custom dashboard cards, such as ISS tracker, NEO, solar activity, and sky map cards, and keeps its entities and cards separate from existing dashboards. Setup is done in the UI, with the Marketplace or HACS required. Automatic summary of the README and code of snfx-johaver/home-assistant-astronomy-suite.
